Situated
in a valley at the meeting of two rivers
and almost completely surrounded by the
South Pennine Moors, Burnley is an enigma;
although it was and still is a proud industrial
town it is located amongst some of the most
beautiful countryside in England and has
a wealth of attractions within its borders.

| Towneley
Hall - Dating from the early 1400’s
Towneley Hall is set in 24 acres of woodland
and is surrounded by extensive grounds. A
one million pound extension to the hall was
opened in 2002. This has improved visitor
facilities and allowed parts of the hall previously
closed to the public to be opened for viewing
for the first time, with lifts available to
most floors and the art galleries.
